Song: “Ice Cream Cone” (Tune: “Did You Ever See a Lassie?”)
We all want an ice cream cone, ice cream cone, ice cream cone
We all want an ice cream cone, we’ll eat it right away.
Chocolate is our favorite kind, favorite kind, favorite kind
Chocolate is our favorite kind, we’d eat it every day.
(add as many flavor verses as you like)
Thank you for the ice cream cone, ice cream cone, ice cream cone
Thank you for the ice cream cone, it really hit the spot!

Flannel: Ice Cream Colors
We have ice cream, the best in town,
Let us begin with chocolate brown.
Now, let us scoop up some bubble-gum pink.
It is sweet and yummy, the best, some think.
Here is ice cream minty and green,
It is the creamiest I have ever seen.
Yellow ice cream is lemony and tart,
We like its taste from the very start.
Scoops of blueberry would make my day,
Look at all this ice cream, hip, hip, hooray!
Red ice cream is a strawberry delight,
All these scoops are a wonderful sight.
Vanilla white is a popular flavor,
It tastes very good to an ice-cream craver.
Purple ice cream really gives me a kick,
Good and yummy until the very last lick.
Ice cream, ice cream, what a cool sensation,
We love ice cream in any combination!

Song: “We Are Ice Cream Cones” (Tune: “The Grand Old Duke of York”)
We are ice cream cones
On a summer’s day,
Melting, melting, melting, melting,
Melting all away.

Song: “Milkshake Song” – Old Town School of Folk Music: Songs for Wiggleworms
You take a little milk, pour some milk
And you take a little cream, pour some cream
You stir it all up
You shake it and you’ll sing…a 1,2,3,4
Milkshake, milkshake shake it up, shake it up
Milkshake, milkshake shake it all up!
Milkshake, milkshake shake it up, shake it up
Milkshake, milkshake shake it all up!

Song (with ukulele chords): “If All the Raindrops”
C
If all the raindrops
G7 C
Were lemon drops and gumdrops
C G7 C
Oh, what a rain that would be!
C G7 C G7
Standing outside, with my mouth open wide
C G7 C G7
Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah!
C G7 C
If all the raindrops were lemon drops and gumdrops,
C G7 C
Oh, what a rain it would be!
Additional verses:
If all the snowflakes
Were candy bars and milkshakes…
If all the sunbeams
Were bubblegum and ice cream…
